Stroph prepared for the battle and waited for his opponent. He was focused and ready for the worst possible outcome. If necessary, he would sacrifice everything he had, but he would survive and prevail.
The monster was in no hurry to attack him. It was walking slowly toward the young man, exposing its razor-sharp claws. The Reaper Lizard had already wounded Stroph, although it was able to do it only thanks to a surprise attack.
The monster didn't think he could win easily in a one-on-one fight.
Stroph put his hands covered in a snow-white substance in front of him and began waiting for his opponent's actions. He was confident that he could see and react to the monster's movements.
If you can see the blow, then you won't have any trouble dodging it either. That's exactly what Stroph thought at that moment.
Whoosh.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
